Quotes of 1951

Quotes taken from the authors in 1951

God knows I gave my best in baseball at all times and no man on earth can truthfully judge me otherwise.

Shoeless Joe Jackson

When I was up there at the plate, my purpose was to get on base anyway I could, whether by hitting or by getting hit.

Shoeless Joe Jackson

I ain't afraid to tell the world that it didn't take school stuff to help a fella play ball.

Shoeless Joe Jackson

I wanted as little formal linguistic theory as I could get by with. I wanted the basic linguistic training to do a translation of the New Testament.

Daniel Everett

Christians who believe in the Bible believe that it is their job to bring others the joy of salvation. Even if they're murdered, beaten to death, imprisoned - that's what you do for God.

Daniel Everett

I was quite a successful evangelist. I've had people write to me and say, 'Gee, I'm a Christian because of you and I hear you're not a Christian, that's shocking to me.' I don't take these things lightly, but that's who I am. I can't change it.

Daniel Everett

One of the saddest things I've seen in Amazonian cultures is people who were self-sufficient and happy that now think of themselves as poor and become dissatisfied with their lives. What worries me is outsiders trying to impose their values and materialism on the Piraha.

Daniel Everett

There are very few places in the world where you have to learn a language with no language in common. It's called a monolingual field situation.

Daniel Everett

What's universal is the texture of our relationships. It's evolving. Times are changing with the women's movement. Men's roles are being redefined and, in some ways, they're confused.

Terry McMillan

Every human being I know craves love and affection.

Terry McMillan

As far as young kids go, my primary interest is to get parents to read to their kids. That's about the most you can do, I think.

Terry McMillan

I don't let negative criticism, for the most part, bother me.

Terry McMillan

I would like to think that as a result of not just my own experiences, but at least being empathetic and compassionate about other people's experiences and plights and tragedies, that I am affected by it and learn from it.

Terry McMillan

I hope everybody's had fun, because I've enjoyed my ride. I can tell you that. Now it's time to step aside and let some other young kid come in and win. Hopefully, they will, too.

Fuzzy Zoeller

They talk about Amen Corner but there's so much more to it than what meets the eye on this golf course.

Fuzzy Zoeller

When you have strings, everybody pulls you here and pulls you there.

Fuzzy Zoeller

Playing with friends is a victory.

Fuzzy Zoeller

There is something magical about that green coat. I mean that sincerely. It's a very special week, and being able to wear that green jacket. It's made my whole career. It's special.

Fuzzy Zoeller

To appreciate nonsense requires a serious interest in life.

Gelett Burgess

If in the last few years you haven't discarded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse. You may be dead.
